Audio drives our society in more ways than one can imagine. It surrounds us all day every day, when you’re driving to your job, watching any sort of video with sound, going to a concert, just to name a few. Audio and music are so intertwined with what it means to be human, that almost no matter where someone goes, they will more than likely be using some form of audio. That is what drives me, to chase the ability to influence and inspire people through one of our most basic functions of day-to-day life. Any form of audio has this ability, and that is why I search for any opportunity to make my desire to influence and inspire through audio be my career. I’m looking for any sort of audio work such as music production, live sound, radio, audio for video, video game sound design, you name it. I’m in the process of making my journey out to beautiful Southern California, where I have been working toward for over a decade now. I will be living somewhere in Orange County, California in June 2022 after I graduate. That is where I hope to be able to find my place in this crazy world of ours, and where I plan on finding employment to utilize my skills in audio.

Internship at Glass City Radio!

After all my hard work for my first three semester's, I got the chance to partake in an internship of my choosing. I ended up selecting Glass City Radio, as I wanted a little taste as to how radio is compared to my usual audio engineering activities. Glass City Radio operates HOT 97.3 and MIX 95.7 in Toledo, Ohio. Here, I assisted with many weekly tasks such as changing commercial end dates and adding commercials and other audio elements to NexGen Digital radio automation software, editing the Urban Beat show almost every week, creating banners for both stations social media pages and ticket giveaways, voicing, editing, and even writing my own PSAs to be played on the stations, and a lot of other tasks as well. My internship has taught me a lot about the broadcasting field and my internship manager at my site has given me a lot of information about the industry and her own personal rise to her current position. I was very fortunate to get this experience that I believe will help me long after I graduate and enter the workforce. I will be continuing the internship until I graduate in May, so I will update this post again then.

This is my favorite banner that I have created!

Journal from Internship - I wrote down everything that I did every time I showed up to the Internship, and put it all together in a nice, readable format. (I will update again when my time at the internship is up.)
